A sphere of surface area 4 m2 at temperature 400 K and having emissivity 0.5 is located in an environment of temperature 200 K. The net rate of energy exchange of the sphere is

(Stefan Boltzmann constant σ=5.67×10-8 W m-2 K4)

  1. 3260.8 W
  2. 1632.4 W
  3. 2721.6 W
  4. 4216.4 W

Solution

The net rate of energy exchange of the sphere is, P=εσAT4-Ts4.

Given:

ε=0.5

σ=5.67×10-8 W m-2 K4

A=4 m2

T=400 K and

Ts=200 K

Therefore,

P=0.5×5.67×10-8×44004-2004=2721.6 W
